June 28th

Today we watched the movie "The Giver."  We have been reading the story The Giver for the last few weeks and our class has been enjoying a lot of great discussion about a dystopian society.  I encourage the class to continue reading all of the books in the series.  The books to look for include:  The Giver (1993), Gathering Blue (2000), Messenger (2004) and Son (2012).
